Tools to Get Kids Cookin' in the Kitchen

Got a picky eater? Instead of tricking babe into eating healthy meals, try engaging him in the cooking process. Youngsters love to help and when they see their finished product on a platter, they'll be tempted to try their creation. Before too long, mama may have a mini Wolfgang Puck on her hands who prepares five course meals for the entire family.

Start with some kid friendly tongs and spatulas. They get children in the mood for some cuisine fun. Have them stir up batters or pat down wet lettuce. A personalized apron will give extra incentive to keep things cooking!

Off to Market Recap: Ice Cream Maker

partysugar — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 06:50:15 -0700

Inspired by articles in the current issues of Everyday Food and Everyday With Rachael Ray - both feature homemade ice cream - I've decided it's time to get an ice cream maker. Although I already own one, it's the kind that requires ice and rock salt. Since this can be a hassle, I'm ready for an upgrade. That's why I asked you to help me find a new electronic ice cream maker. You looked for affordable functional machines that won't take up too much space in my studio's kitchen. Then you bookmarked your finds in the Yum Market on Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag, Ice Cream Maker.

This automatic ice cream maker by Cuisinart is only $49! Although it also comes in red, I prefer the white that Bengalspice discovered. The best thing about this appliance is that I already know how to use it: it's the same model that my grandfather owns. To see more ice cream makers, browse below.
